In some ways England is more liberal than France but I also find it more intrusive. But when you go abroad you have to accept the ways of where you live. I have to respect that.

The person who comes up to you and makes the most noise and is the most intrusive is invariably the person in the room who has no respect for you at all and it's really all about them.

Americans have less and less patience for the intrusive and divisive moral scolds who thrived in the bubbles of the Clinton and Bush years.

Americans want government that is leaner more efficient and less intrusive into their personal lives.

Fiscal conservatism is just an easy way to express something that is a bit more difficult which is that the size and scope of government and really the size and scope of politics in our lives has grown uncomfortable unwieldy intrusive and inefficient.

I believe the American people have a genuine and justifiable fear of government intrusion in what they instinctively know is going to be an ever more intrusive world.
